Two months have passed since I started my university studying. Since I started a totally new life...

And yet there are so many strings that bind me to my hometown, feeling like that even now I am still there! She, meaning I, still goes to school every morning, plays basketball in afternoon, has some extra curriculum lessons and on weekends hangs out with friends ... However, it is not like that! I left leaving all in the past, turning everything that had ever happened to me into vanishing memories.I did it for the future, the ghostly ray of light somewhere at the end of the tunnel …

I can not say that I have made a mistake and I can not also say that this is exactly where I have to be ... Our life is determined by choices and actions. So each step is needed to be considered as a serious, but do not be afraid to stumble!

08/24/15 is a meaningful date of the beginning of a new stage in my life. I woke up early in the morning ... I read a letter that was written for me by my friend, Best Friend ... Her slightly twisted letters formed words of encouragement! She was giving me some useful advice and wishing "Good Luck!". After these warm words, I plucked up all my decisiveness and went for the registration. However, only I was outside everything about what I could think was that I am here alone …

A huge number of freshers who have already formed a long queue. Seemed like everyone knows everybody. At that moment I felt invisible and some haw extra ... And then I saw her, the one who became my saving raft, whose "hand of support" I grabbed and did not want to let go! So it can not be explained by the words how happy I was to get her in my group.Thus began my first week! A week of entertainment and meeting. And that is how I met my first university friend. Now I find it hard to imagine my studying without this Blond Girl. I like to sit with her and enjoy the gentle bitter taste of aromatic coffee!

I am often asked whether it is difficult to stay on my own far away from home. It is easy to say the usual "No". Indeed, it is not that difficult for me. However, sometimes moments of spiritual desolation capture you. It is moments when you want to fall into the embrace of friends, knowing that that is a person with whom you are linked by specific stories. Then this person is here and will not go away, that you can rely on her/him! I spend hours talking in Skype or chatting with them. Even not noticing how time gets away from me, and days change each other. I get wrapped with their voices or words, I catch their eyes or try to feel their mood, and everything I am dreaming about is simply to touch them!

I have never been defined as a tenderness or excessively sentimental person. Rarely showed initial feelings. And now I think why I did not... Why have not embraced? Why have not talked about feelings? Why I missed all that opportunity...

Appreciate what you have! Strive for more and do everything possible to achieve that! However, do not miss what you already have!

I often complain about the ordinariness of my life, but one day I realized that this routine makes to appreciate other moments in your life!

And some tips for you:

  • Do not be afraid to take risks!

  • Achieve your goals despite the obstacles because nobody will do it for you!

  • Appreciate people!

  • Do not be afraid to show feelings!

  • Always stay true to yourself and follow your principles!

  • Do what you like to do!

  • Never give up!

If now you do not know what you want, try to get yourself, to understand what exactly you like. Making choices is always a difficult prose, but remember that you always can make a new one! Do not be afraid to go against the crowd and be a native! And remember, "You are a scriptwriter of your life"!
